Probably not -- unless the output format just happens to work with your
program. When a real database of parts does get off the ground (with the
ability for people to contribute directly to it in an automated way), I'm
almost certain that you will be blocked from making direct contributions to
the core data. Not only have you failed to demonstrate in the .cad.* groups
that you are willing and able to do things with the degrees of accuracy and
anal-retentiveness required for something like this, but you have in fact
repeatedly demonstrated that you are actually *unable* to do things
accurately. So please realize that if you attempt to publish inventories
that you have done yourself, there is likely to be a backlash against you
from many directions. You have upset too many people in the past 6 months
for anyone to trust anything you do anymore.
Sorry,
